Hi Angie,

The 'tops' of C70s can be confusing. Bottom line, the coupé is a hard top that slopes down with a sort of integrated boot and the cabriolet is the convertible. Both beasts in their own right that disappear as quickly as a pint of cold lager on a hot day like this!

And you're never too old to be in a convertible! You can get a rough idea of my age if I say I was born before D-Day and I well remember the 50th Anniversary of the RAF!! Though I do manage to do without a flat cap and have a VOC baseball cap instead. A bloke of my age in a baseball cap? I mean to say...

And an interesting, but cheap, rattle... Loosely wrap an old tin round the back end of the exhaust just before it emerges from underneath the back bumper. An additional "oh dear" uttered sotto voce along with suggestions of how much a new exhaust is!
